Can someone guide me how to test the mail software? I can send emails but can't receive. I have Dovecot - telnet to 143 port says Dovecot OK. Same with port 25. I get back mail delivery problem. 550. No mail shows in Roundcube. Log files maillog shows nothing, seems empty. It's clean install. On testing Exim log I get something like this:
pop3-login auth Error: passrd-file: stat (/etc/exim/domains/myserver/passwd) failed: No such file or directory
pop3-login auth Error: passrd-file: stat (/etc/exim/domains/myserver/passwd) failed: No such file or directory
Error messages are there for a reason (though I concede some of them don't communicate very well). Have you checked whether this file exists and, if so, what its contents may be?
The files does not exist. So that's also what I'm wondering. How to create that file and what to put into it? How to configure IMAP properly? I installed Vesta Control Panel http://vestacp.com/features/
Can someone please check this logs and tell me why my roundcube can't receive emails? I think many errors, seems all f. up already: https://file.re/2020/10/28/errors/
I have all kinds of authentication errors in Roundcube, Exim and Dovecot. Seems someone is playing with my server, maybe break in, trying to send emails on my behalf.
